19 months

Chloe is now 19 months. Closer to two than she is to one. Sheesh.

She continues to do all of those things that a toddler does. Climbs everything. Throws little tantrums. Gives hugs and kisses. Waves bye bye at cars and dogs and sometimes even people. Dances like a banshee. To sum in all up in one word: MISCHIEF.

She is enjoying the warmer weather, for sure. Trips to the park with Daddy and now Mommy are such a treat. She recently acquired a "Cozy Coupe" from Grammie and Grandpa and LOVES to tool around in it. You know, the red car with the yellow roof from when we were kids?

She is started to show her opinions more. If we pick out shoes that she doesn't like, she shakes her head to and runs to get a new pair. Flash-forward to teenage years! We have a box of extra food under a bench that she can reach, and she's been crawling under there to pick out her snack when she's hungry.

She has a dump truck and likes to collect rocks for her truck. Actually, she likes to collect anything. And sort it.

Her favorite new past time is sitting on the bench in front of our window and watching life go by. She could do it for hours. I'm sure you will see pictures posted soon.

She is a whiz at technology and can capably operate the mouse on the computer, as well as more impressively, unlock Daddy's iPod touch, which she likes to watch movies and pictures of herself on. She can also turn on Daddy's clock radio next to his bed when she feels like dancing. Hilarious.

Her hair is now long enough to fit into a ponytail, which Mommy loves and her shoe collection seems to be expanding exponentially.

She is a hurricane of love and laughter and we are SO looking forward to this summer with her. Happy 1 year and 7 months, Chlo!
